If the insured amount is higher than the actual value at the time of the incident for a totally damaged insurance vehicle, compensation will be calculated based on the actual value at the time of the incident. That is, compensation = (actual value - residual value) × accident liability ratio × (1 - deductible rate). If the insured amount is equal to or lower than the actual value at the time of the incident for a totally damaged insurance vehicle, compensation will be calculated based on the insured amount. That is, compensation = (insured amount - residual value) × accident liability ratio × (1 - deductible rate). Total loss insurance is a type of insurance that recognizes compensation only in cases where the cargo is completely lost or deemed a total loss.

What does the emission standard relocation restriction mean?

Emission standard relocation restriction means that some vehicles from other regions with excessively low emission standards are not allowed to be relocated into the local area. More relevant information is as follows: 1. Introduction: The so-called "relocation restriction" refers to some localities adopting measures such as restricting environmental protection standards and vehicle age for second-hand motor vehicles from other provinces or cities to prevent a large influx of these vehicles into the local market. To put it simply, the relocation restriction for used cars means that cross-regional transfer must comply with the licensing policy of the destination. That is, some vehicles from other regions with excessively low emission standards are not allowed to be relocated into the local area. 2. Note: Local governments often justify this policy as being for environmental protection. According to statistics, more than 95% of prefecture-level cities nationwide are implementing relocation restriction policies to varying degrees.

Do I Need to Replace the Filter When Using a Flushing Machine to Change Transmission Fluid?

When using a flushing machine to change transmission fluid, it is necessary to replace the filter. Here is the relevant information: 1. Reason: Just like when changing engine oil, the oil filter needs to be replaced. Otherwise, the significance of changing the transmission fluid is diminished. The main function of transmission fluid is to keep the shifting system clean and to lubricate the transmission components, thereby extending their lifespan. 2. Transmission: Due to differences in transmission design, transmissions are divided into manual transmissions and automatic transmissions (which are further categorized into CVT, AMT, etc.). Each transmission design has different technical requirements. Even the same model of transmission configured in different vehicle models will have differences in torque, weight, speed, structure, etc. Therefore, the original manufacturer specifies its own dedicated transmission fluid.

Can the car be started after the water recedes from the exhaust pipe?

Water has receded from the exhaust pipe and the car can be started. The reasons are as follows: The exhaust system generally consists of the exhaust manifold (header), exhaust pipe, flexible connection (bellows), catalytic converter, and muffler. The exhaust system is almost horizontally arranged along the chassis, but the exhaust manifold is connected to the engine, and its vertical position is higher than other components of the exhaust system. When water has just submerged the exhaust pipe, it cannot enter the engine cylinders. After the water recedes, the water level in the exhaust pipe will definitely drop again, meaning it will be farther from the exhaust outlet. At this point, starting the car will not cause water in the exhaust pipe to be sucked back into the engine. After the water recedes, pay attention to the following starting method: Ignite and start the car, but do not press the accelerator and let it idle. At this time, a lot of water will be discharged from the exhaust pipe until it no longer drips, which should not take long, about 8 minutes.

What Causes Oil Leakage from the Engine Cover?

Engine cover oil leakage can be caused by the following reasons: The causes of engine cover oil leakage include damage to the oil pan, loose or stripped drain plug, and excessive crankcase pressure. Damage to the oil pan: Since most vehicles have relatively low ground clearance, if the driver operates the vehicle on rough or uneven terrain, the oil pan is highly susceptible to damage from scraping against the ground or being struck by flying debris. As the container that stores engine oil, any damage to the oil pan will immediately result in oil leakage (most oil pans today are made of aluminum alloy, though some are constructed from stamped steel plates). In this case, the oil pan needs to be replaced. Loose or stripped drain plug: If during an oil change or routine maintenance, the drain plug becomes loose or stripped due to negligence or improper handling by the technician, the engine will inevitably leak oil. In this scenario, the drain plug needs to be tightened. Excessive crankcase pressure: When too much oil is added or when the crankcase ventilation system fails, allowing mixed gases from the cylinders to accumulate continuously, the internal pressure of the crankcase rises excessively. This high pressure forces oil out through the seals, causing leakage. In this case, the crankcase requires repair.

Has the Nissan Livina Been Discontinued?

Nissan Livina has not been discontinued but has been upgraded with a new model. Below is an extended introduction: 1. Powertrain: Dongfeng Nissan equips the Livina with the same HR16DE all-aluminum DOHC engine as the Tiida, but without the C-VTC continuous variable valve timing intelligent control. This allows the Livina to achieve a maximum power of 77kW at 5,200 rpm and a maximum torque of 150Nm at 4,400 rpm, with a top speed of 180km/h. The engine is paired with either a 4-speed automatic transmission or a 5-speed manual transmission. The 0-100km/h acceleration time varies slightly around 12 seconds depending on the configuration. Although the Livina is nearly 50kg lighter than the Tiida of the same displacement, its fuel consumption is slightly higher. 2. Suspension: The front MacPherson strut and rear torsion beam suspension setup gives the Livina a balanced performance in urban driving. Front disc and rear drum brakes are standard for vehicles in this price range. The electronically controlled variable power steering makes the Livina very easy to maneuver, making it particularly suitable for female drivers.

Does a Car Consume Fuel When Idling?

Yes, a car consumes fuel when idling. Here are some related details about engine stalling: 1. Reasons for stalling: Automatic transmission models: Vehicles with automatic transmission rarely experience stalling, whereas manual transmission models may stall frequently due to inexperienced driving. However, automatic transmission cars can also stall, mainly due to the use of low-quality fuel causing engine carbon buildup and stalling. 2. Precautions: For automatic transmission cars, stalling is primarily caused by using substandard fuel. The solution is to refuel at reputable, large-scale gas stations with higher-grade fuel, such as 97-octane gasoline. Although more expensive, it ensures longer vehicle lifespan and better driving performance.
